Ingredients
- 2 x 230g No.1 British Free Range Unsmoked Streaky Bacon
- 1 tbsp light brown soft sugar
- 5 tbsp Ottolenghi Orange Marmalade Dressing
- ¼ x 20g pack chives, finely chopped
Method
Preheat the oven to 240ºC, gas mark 9. Line a baking tray with baking parchment. Separate the bacon into rashers and add them to the tray along with the sugar, 3 tbsp of the dressing and some freshly ground black pepper. Use your hands to toss everything together, then separate the rashers again and arrange in an even layer (no need to flatten or straighten as you want them to curl up during cooking).
Roast for 10-15 minutes, tossing them with a pair of tongs halfway through. To serve, transfer the bacon to a serving plate, drizzle with the remaining 2 tbsp of dressing and sprinkle over the chives.
